The Road

Posted on June 4, 2022 by Mark Waldrop

There’s just one road to Heaven
There’s just one road to hell
Just where on that road do you dwell 
Do you dwell  Do you dwell

Are you headed for the darkness 
Are you headed for the light
Oh DEAR LORD take me out of this dark night
Out of the night                                                  
Out of the night

If you're headed for the darkness of hell
Make a 180 turn and head for the light
For the light 
For the light

There’s light at the cross 
There’s light at the cross 
Just follow the light and you’ll never get lost
Never get lost
Never get lost

The road to Heaven is so smooth and bright,  the road to hell is bumpy with no light in sight
No light in sight
No light in sight

Turn around now before it’s way too late
Or you’ll miss that Heavenly Golden Gate 
Golden Gate
Golden Gate

JESUS is waiting for you at the end of the road 
To take your burdens and lift your load
Lift your load
Lift your load

The Joy will make your heart swell 
That is when JESUS will come in and dwell 
Come in and dwell 
Come in and dwell 

You’ve made it home. You’ve made it home. 
You're now with Jesus never more to roam 
Never more to roam
Never more to roam

He heard my Cry

Posted on June 1, 2022 by Mark Waldrop

I waited patiently for the LORD to Help me. 
I turned to HIM. HE heard my Cry. 
(Psalm 40:1 NLT)

I fell to my knees thanking HIM. 
Before my life grew strangely dim.

Thank You GOD

Posted on May 31, 2022 by Mark Waldrop

THANK You, GOD, For What You’ve Done For Me

I Don’t Know Why it Should Ever Be

You’ve Done So Much For Me

I’ve Done Very Little For Thee

You Died on The Cross To Save Me From My Sins

I Could Never Repay You If I Tried Again and Again

Your Love Washes Through Me Like Fresh Wind

Refreshing My Soul Again And Again

I Have Nothing Of Worth to Repay you With

I Can Only Give My Life In Service With A Fresh Breath

Praise You, Praise You Again And Again

For Giving Your Life And Being My Friend

Good Day or Bad Day

Posted on May 31, 2022 by Mark Waldrop

What’s the difference between a good day and bad day
It’s what you plan for I would say. 

If you plan and pray for a good day it’s on the way

If you do nothing and leave it by chance 
What You get will be by happenstance.

Crossing

Posted on May 30, 2022 by Mark Waldrop

When you slip the Surly bonds of earth
And lay your head down to sleep

Don’t fear the Good Shepherd knows the way
And your soul HE will Keep

The fullness you’ll feel the Joy you’ll find 
When you feel GOD’S Love Refined

There’s nothing more complete
Then to Bow Down at Our Savior's Feet

Missed

Posted on May 29, 2022 by Mark Waldrop

It feels so good to be missed
I feel so very very blessed

There is a time and place in every season
We find ourselves with little or no reason

Once we see GOD’S great eternal plan
That’s when we begin to fully understand

The Finish Line

Posted on May 29, 2022 by Mark Waldrop

Oh to cross the finish line would be my goal
To hear the crowd roar would make me whole

In the race of life, the line keeps moving ahead. 
It becomes very apparent I will not reach it until I’m dead

Only at the end of life, the crowd will roar 
You have won the race to live for evermore

PRAISING HIS NAME

Posted on May 29, 2022 by Mark Waldrop

Come To GOD PRAISING HIS HOLY NAME. 
Not complaining about every little thing. 

Thank HIM for what HE’S given you. 
From HIS storehouse, HE Blesses anew. 

May HE fill you full of the Spirit. 
May HE  fill your barns if you merit. 

It’s left up to GOD for HIS Will to be done. 
We can only PRAISE HIS NAME and the race will be won.

Humble Your Heart

Posted on May 29, 2022 by Mark Waldrop

To win  the course of life, humble your heart 
So that you don’t appear overly smart

Humility is a great gift from above
Given only to those who show GOD’S LOVE.

I Cried to Jesus

Posted on May 29, 2022 by Mark Waldrop

I cried out to Jesus Save Me
Nothing happened that I could see

You have to let Me in he replied
Before I can help and abide

I asked Him to come into my heart 
There he dwells today

Now he grants 
My every wish that is best for me when I pray
